Netbotz: Unable to Browse or View all OID Information from an SNMP Target

Issue:

Netbotz: Unable to Browse or View all OID Information from an SNMP Target

Product Line:
NetBotz

Environment:

NetBotz MIB

Cause:

Just because an OID is defined doesn't make it readable - the trap OIDs are just symbols used in traps that distinguish between one trap type and another.

Resolution:

As a rule, only things declared with an "OBJECT-TYPE" tag will ever be readable, and even those can be trap-specific OIDs (varbinds that are used for parameters provided in a trap) versus being readable ("walkable") OIDs.

In the V2 MIB, anything under netBotzV2Traps or netBotzV2TrapParms is not readable/walkable - they are attributes used as enterprise OIDs and parameters of traps (respectively).
